Oh, Kate. Tornadoes are scary and it seems like you’re familiar with them.

The past couple of days I’m feeling more concerned for some of our members. It’s only natural on a seniors group. I still want the best possible for everyone.

I'm very run down, physically, today.

Can barely stand, and just for a few short minutes, each time.

Obviously, I've been overdoing, this week and last week;
it's a result of that, and I will just have to wait it out; I've learned to do that.
Begrudgingly.

I needed to look at something positive and calming, today, so I've enjoyed looking at older posts in
@Medusa 's smart bird feeder thread, today.

Loved seeing the photos, and reading the captions, by Medusa, and informative and fun reply posts there , some by @PeppermintPatty !


The first few times I read posts by our RadishRose , and saw her reply icons,
I felt sadness and could barely look.

After a few more times, I began to enjoy seeing her own unique input and presence, there.

Thank you, RadishRose!
Our RR with wings.

Good Afternoon, Kaila and Friends.

It feels a bit strange, but I do think others are right in that the best way to honor Radish is to continue on, being positive, like she was.

@Kaila, I'm glad you're resting today and giving yourself a chance to catch up. Also, so happy the birdie pictures are bringing you some joy. That's a gorgeous woodpecker picture you've posted as well.

I have a couple pictures from today and am just waiting for a few more before posting. Spoiler: I saw Mr. Cardinal today! Yay! He and his mate have been away for a while. I think @PeppermintPatty was commenting that they might have been spooked by the new finch feeder, which makes since.

@CallMeKate, glad you didn't blow away! I love the wind and a good storm, but not when it turns the lights off. :/ We did fine in it as well. It was just noisy.

Wishing everyone on this lovely thread a peaceful Thursday afternoon.

 

[Kaila]

It was a long day, today, but hopefully tomorrow will go a little easier.

Good night, friends.

Kate, you’re cute as a button this morning.

 

[Kaila]

Kate, you’re cute as a button this morning.

I agree.
Kate is so cute and cozy looking, in her matching knitted outfit ( including a hole for each ear)

 

[PeppermintPatty]

Yes. And all of the downy and hairy woodpeckers love them.
As well as the goldfinches, and lots of others.

Oh yes. Most birds love shelled sunflower seeds.

Good morning, everyone!

Ahhhhh! That’s as cute as can be.

 

[Kaila]

Physically, I'm a small bit improved, today;
Emotionally, not as much.

It's a pretty day, looking my window. Blue sky, calm, clear, and still.
I saw Mr and Mrs Cardinal, this morning. Great to see them, every time they come.
When I'm looking.

My bird feeder isn't smart enough, to take pictures or video for me.

How are each of you, doing today?

*hugs* for that first statement.

about the same.

 

[Kaila]

Would you like an outfit, the same as the one that Kate is wearing, today, Patty?

I'm sure that @Jules
Would happily knit one up for you,
just as did for @CallMeKate

Same or different color as hers?

 

[Kaila]

about the same.

And back, for you.

Yessssss and I’d like to be a cute fluffy kitten.

Yessssss and I’d like to be a cute fluffy kitten.

Thank you. That gave me a smile and a laugh.

 

[Kaila]

Wait till @Jules
Finds out what I volunteered her for, above.

Good Afternoon, Kaila and Friends.

Windy here today, but nice. Lucius and I enjoyed the wind on the second walk. I talk to him a lot while we're walking and today we discussed the windy weather.

It's Friday so husband is off and we're planning to watch a game later.

Right now, I'm hanging out with boyfriend and watching TV that is not good for my brain. :/

@Kaila, glad you're at least feeling physically a little better today.

Hope you're all feeling as well as you might be this Friday afternoon.

 

[Kaila]

@Medusa
What were Lucius ' opinions and viewpoints, regarding the Windy Day?

You forgot to include that, in your post.

 

[CallMeKate]

Good morning, everyone! I hope all of you are happier campers than I am this morning because my washer gave out yesterday so I'll be shopping for a new one this weekend. NOT my idea of fun! BUT it'll be over soon, so I won't worry too much about it.

I continue to see our RadishRose's influence all over the forum. And memories. Example just this morning when I realized it's Pi Day. I remembered another year when she either started a Pi Day thread, or contributed to one, and the delicious-looking pictures she used. She has certainly left a lasting impression.

 

[Kaila]

Thank you for that beautiful post above,
@CallMeKate

You are right. Our RadishRose left a huge, and delicious..... and everlasting effect..... on the forum.... and on us.

Thank you, RR with wings

 

[Kaila]

That Pi pie, looks splendid!
I'd love to have that for breakfast!

Sorry about the sudden demise to your washer, ...not a good happening.
@CallMeKate

 

[Kaila]

Can you see what was on my feeder, a few minutes ago?
Or is it too small to identify?

 

[Kaila]

 

[Kaila]

It's a larger bird than the goldfinches, and other finches, but i don't know if it's a good enough photo or close enough, the way I took it, as fast as I could.
